Drayton Carn

One of the characters from an as yet unarticulated, if ever to be, ethos of Dain, Dainplanet, to an extent Terrestria, etc - distinct from 'mythos' in that its texture derives from what can be abridgedly termed as hyper-realism (never to confound with the postmodern misuses of the terminology which have nothing at all to do with the same).

In these materials penned by Carn a veil is parted or lifted to reveal the more complex connections between the visible and the invisible. They not infrequently assume a dusky glow; yet, for the very ultimate purpose all the same, that light be appreciated - and light in its infinite, divine, essence.

Carn shares his interests to involve the humanities to a greater extent, with certain aspirations in the fields cognitive-scientific, cognitive-artistic, linguistic and spiritual. He has access to some rare resources - either fallen into obscurity, or misrepresented in wider circles. Yet he takes care not to rush the eduction of the materials concerned, being himself in a 'maze' of precarious trials where often gems have to be picked like little crumbs and cracks in the midst of a dark and adverse environment - and where, in the long run, only one gifted will receive more gifts; he, however, who does not abide by his gift - shall lose even that one.

Hence, Carn's materials are neither systematised nor normalised for publication. Yet 'he who sits in the cavern does not give up hope, seeing, as he does, a filter of light from an overhanging rent in heaven.'
